Adventures Under the Spring Camp

Fee for two-day weekend camp for children ages 7 to 14 is $375.

If your child has ever dreamed of becoming a mermaid, you won’t want to miss this exciting two-day camp! We’ll teach your child what it is like to be a Weeki Wachee mermaid performer. Your child will learn the grace and basic ballet moves that our mermaids perform every day and have training sessions in 15 feet of water with a watchful instructor.

Campers will learn the daily responsibilities of being a mermaid while getting a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to put on a show. On the last day of camp, all parents and friends are invited to view the underwater performance the campers have learned. Each camper will also participate in one of our mermaid shows as a dry performer in the underwater theater!

Your child will also receive a beautiful “Mermaid Makeover” and self-portrait, as well as a group shot of their camp. 

  • If your child is not comfortable swimming in the spring, please reconsider this camp. Please note that your child will not be instructed to breathe off our air hoses. 
  • Your child will be swimming in approximately 15 feet of water. There will be trained underwater performers with your child at all times, and there are areas your child may hang onto if they become fatigued.

Camp sessions are filled on a first-come, first-served basis. There is a maximum of eight children for each camp weekend. NO EXCEPTIONS. The camp sells out quickly.  We do not offer a waitlist.
